  • This mode of installation allows the engine (10) to drive the vehicle when the two motors (1) and (31) are not in operation.
  • This possibihty already described is provided by the fact that the output shafts of the engine and the two motors are all located along the same axis (M), which is the axis of shaft (8) or (8'), the axis on which clutches (13), (37) and the clutch indicated in position (24) (not shown), necessary for establishing which of the three will drive the vehicle, act, the axis of the bush (36), the axis of the element (36*) and the axis of the spacer (36").
  • the engine and motors are placed so that they are all able to drive the vehicle using the same differential (2), the same gearbox, consisting of the toothed wheels (15), (16), (17), and (18) (see FIG. 19), or the same speed reducer, comprising the toothed wheels (16) and (17) (see FIG. 20).
  • the engine runs on fuel, preferably petrol or Diesel fuel, the electric motor is powered by the storage batteries (39) or the power generator (41 ) and the hydrauhc motor is driven by the hydrauhc pump (11). Both the generator (41 ) and the pump (11) are driven by the internal combustion engine (10) which makes the entire system independent.
  • fuel preferably petrol or Diesel fuel
  • the electric motor is powered by the storage batteries (39) or the power generator (41 ) and the hydrauhc motor is driven by the hydrauhc pump (11). Both the generator (41 ) and the pump (11) are driven by the internal combustion engine (10) which makes the entire system independent.
  • the system allows: - use of the engine (10) when the vehicle is to travel on normal roads at speeds appropriate to road traffic; use of the hydrauhc motor (10) when the vehicle is to travel at low speeds, to move over steep or uneven roads, or to be used for heavy-duty transport or other tasks where load speeds, difficult to achieve with internal combustion engines, are required; use of the electric motor (31) powered by the electricity supplied by the storage batteries (39), when the vehicle is used in enclosed environments;
  • FIG. 11 and 12 represent the most simple compositions which can be obtained by means of the elements described; in other words, an engine (10) acting directly on a differential (3) enclosed in the box (2) by means of the gearbox shown in FIG. 11, while in FIG. 12 the gearbox is replaced by an ordinary speed reducer.
  • the vehicle can again be driven by means of the transmission shaft (20) which is connected to the second differential (21) and the power take ⁇ off, by means of the PTO shaft.

Abstract

Moteurs modulaires et interchangeables destinés à produire et à transmettre un mouvement, comprenant différents types de moteurs à combustion interne (10), de moteurs hydrauliques (1) ou de moteurs électriques (31), disposés ou disponibles sur le même axe et reliés au boîtier (2) d'un différentiel (3). Les moteurs sont équipés d'une boîte de vitesse et d'un réducteur de vitesse, installés dans leur logement respectif (2') et (2') et qui, au moyen d'engrenages et de commutateurs actionnés par des leviers, peuvent mettre le véhicule en mouvement en faisant appel à chaque moteur séparément ou en les associant les uns avec les autres, et en arrêtant les moteurs non activés. Chacun des ces moteurs, accessoires, carters, etc. peut être activé ou désactivé par le système en fonction des besoins du véhicule à mouvoir, en sachant que différentes combinaisons sont possibles.
